ip6_addr_to_string did assume, that inet_ntop might write a scope id to
the result. But it does not (and cannot, because struct in6_addr does
not have any interface identifer).
Simplify and rework the function.
Also fix a memory leak.

Commit 6abc7b78f6 introduced a
bug in nm_connection_diff() by not reading the property value with
g_object_get_property().
Signed-off-by: Thomas Haller <thaller@redhat.com>
Because it's not trivial to generate a connection that exactly matches
one which was applied by NetworkManager before a restart, we need to
make matching somewhat fuzzier. Mark any setting property that can be
read from the system or kernel as INFERRABLE, and match only on those
properties when trying to find the persistent connection (if any) which
is already active on that device.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1029859
nm_connection_diff must also use the virtual functions like
nm_connection_compare. This way, settings can overwrite the default
comparison of individual properties.

When a gateway is not in the prefix of any of the interface's IP addresses,
NetworkManager adds a static host route to the gateway through the
interface to ensure the gateway can be reached. That route will not
be part of the persistent connection (since it was added automatically)
but would normally be picked up by connection generation. This would
cause the generated connection not to match with the persistent
connection, because the persistent connection does not have the host
route. Ignore the gateway host route when capturing the interface's
existing IP configuration.
When generating a connection, if the device has no non-link-local IPv6
address, then it's unclear whether (a) the connection was link-local
originally, or (b) the connection was 'auto' but IPv6 failed or timed
out.
In this case, if there is a persistent connection that is 'auto' but
the generated connection is 'link-local', the persistent connection
should be used.
Add a more-testable framework for doing the connection matching to
handle this.
INFERRABLE means the opposite of CANDIDATE; a property which NetworkManager
can read ("infer") from the system or the kernel when generating
connections. CANDIDATE isn't a great name and thus dies.

We can only create virtual interfaces when the connection has autoconnect
property *and* the device was not manually disconnected before.
Without this commit NetworkManager would auto-activate all virtual connections
when a change was done (e.g. new virtual connection was addded).
When a device is initialized to be managed, it will transition through states
unmanaged -> unavailable -> disconnected. We don't want to remove software
devices during this initial transition to disconnected, because it prevents
auto-activation.
Test case:
$ nmcli con add type vlan ifname myvlan dev eth0 id 123
NM should immediately create myvlan interface and automatically activate it.

When an activation request requires secrets, if there is a secret
agent in the process that made the request, then prefer that to all
other secret agents.
Rather than explicitly passing around a UID and a flag saying whether
or not it's relevant.
(This also fixes a bug where the wrong UID was being recorded in
nm-settings-connection.c::auth_start(), which caused problems such as
agent-owned secrets not getting saved because of a perceived UID
mismatch.)
Slaves have no IP configuration and should not have any IP settings.
This fixes connection comparison between generated slave connections
and persistent slave connections, as persistent slave connections won't
have any IP configuration.
This reverts commit 9a019f1fb5.
Generic connections should be bound to their interface names in a more generic
way instead of in nm-device.c. The Generic device itself should set the
attributes it needs when generating the connection, like other device types do.
This will be done in a following commit.
If the connection describes a bridge/bond/team/etc slave, where the
slave setting (like NMSettingBridgePort or NMSettingTeamPort) has all
default values, the setting does not get written out because the
plugin does not write default values. But then when reading the
connection back in, we need to add that all-default slave type setting
since it's required for a valid connection.
Zero values are actually valid values for various bridge options
and should be written out. Otherwise, when reading the property
back in, it gets assigned the default value which is often not
zero, causing the wrong value to be set in the connection.
Only properties with default values should not be written out.
In the migration to NMPlatform, support for ptp/peer addresses was
accidentally dropped. This broke OpenVPN configurations using 'p2p'
topology, which send a different peer address than the local address
for tunX, plus the server may also push routes that use the peer
address as the next hop. NetworkManager was unable to add these
routes, because the kernel had no idea how to talk to the peer,
because the peer's address was not assigned to any interface or
reachable over any routes.
Partly based on a patch from Dan Williams.
This reverts commit f43586fc17.
This broke stuff as "name" was set on various places after construction. So we
revert the commit for now, and will rework it.
dhcpcd v5.99 and later automatically enabled IPv6 behavior unless
specifically disabled. This is undesirable for two reason:
1) dhcpcd sends IPv4 Router Solicitations, which NetworkManager
handles itself, so there's no need to do it twice. NetworkManager
knows better than dhcpcd whether IPv6 is supposed to be used for
that interface or not.
2) Some devices don't react well to IPv6 when they aren't expecting
it. For example, older Qualcomm Gobi-based devices will listen
for Router Solicitations and attempt to set up IPv6, but if other
settings are not done correctly, or the firmware doesn't actually
support it, the firmware will then crash. So simply upgrading your
dhcpcd from 5.x to 6.x magically stops WWAN working for these
devices.
Make the name property CONSTRUCT_ONLY. With this there is also no more
need to overwrite the constructor().

The public property is called NM_SETTING_VLAN_INTERFACE_NAME,
so also the internal field and the PROP_* enum should carry
the same name.

Previously, the device activation would stall in this case, because
the code wasn't expecting it to happen. In particular, this happens
when trying to assume a device that is up but has no IP config.

When request for getting secrets is being freed in request_free(),
cancel_callback is get_cancel_cb(). It uses parent->current as a secret agent
object. However, this object can be already freed and thus there is a problem
getting priv in nm_secret_agent_cancel_secrets:
g_return_if_fail (self != NULL);
priv = NM_SECRET_AGENT_GET_PRIVATE (self);
(gdb) p self
$66 = (NMSecretAgent *) 0x7fae9afd42e0
(gdb) p *self
$67 = {parent = {g_type_instance = {g_class = 0x0}, ref_count = 0, qdata = 0x0}}

So we need to ref() 'agent' when adding it to pending list, so that the object
is not freed if the secret agent unregisters and is removed.
Test case:
1. run NM and nm-applet
2. activate a Wi-Fi network
3. nm-applet will ask for a password; ignore the popup window and kill nm-applet
4. start nm-applet again
5. click the same Wi-Fi network in nm-applet
6. NM will experience problems in nm_secret_agent_cancel_secrets() or crashes
(the procedure may not be 100%, but reproduces most of the time)
